Secret Service Is Being Weaponized Against Trump Campaign

We can all debate the merits of the argument that Trump's security was kept intentionally lax in Butler, PA, to make it easy for an Iranian (or other) assassination team to take him out.

I think by now it is pretty obvious that the Mayorkas Department of Homeland Security, in particular, and the Biden administration, in general, were happy to provide substandard security to Trump while knowing that Iran had active plots and hit squads in the country working to assassinate Trump. But you may think that the failures were due solely to massive incompetence. 

It's hard to go wrong arguing that a failure is due to government incompetence, and without solid proof, accusing somebody of orchestrating the murder of a former president and perhaps future president is a judgment call. 

But there is no question that the failures of the Secret Service to protect President Trump are being used to stymie his ability to campaign. The Secret Service is not only still providing inadequate protection to Trump, but working to ensure that Kamala Harris can campaign freely while vetoing Trump campaign events.

On Wednesday, Senator Josh Hawley revealed that a whistleblower was accusing the Secret Service of hampering the Trump campaign by providing security to Kamala Harris sufficient to enable a campaign rally while denying Trump the security assets to do the same thing.

It's the sort of bureaucratic move that usually goes under the radar--an administration putting its thumb on the scale in order to get a result that is unfair but desirable to the powers that be.

This is both playing with the life of a marked man and the future President of the United States and blatant interference with the election campaign. 

I didn't write about this before because I wasn't sure about the quality of the evidence. "Whistleblower" can mean anything and be anybody, and while I didn't have great doubt that this was the case, I decided to wait and see if more came out. 

Well, it did. Several news outlets have confirmed the story. The Secret Service DID deny assets to Trump after having initially approved them, upending his schedule in the final weeks of the campaign.

When every vote counts in the swing states, these sorts of things can make a big difference to the outcome of the election, and once again, the gang at Homeland Security is playing with Trump's life because they see him as a threat to their power. Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, and all the power-mad crowd do indeed see Trump as an existential threat. 

The threat isn't to democracy but to their desire for total autocratic power. Trump is on the cusp of destroying their grip on power. They want him gone. Or, as Commerce Secretary Raimundo puts it, "extinguished." 

Or perhaps squashed like a bug, as President Biden put it on The View.

Trump's life is being threatened, and the threats on his life are being used to hamper his campaign. If the assassins don't get him, then the threat of them will still keep him less mobile and able to campaign.

We can argue about how active the Biden/Harris team is in inviting people to kill Donald Trump, but there is no question that they are using the threats to his life to limit his ability to campaign. 

The Secret Service has been drawn into the political arena as an active participant. Mayorkas, perhaps the most malignant force in Washington, is using his power to ensure Kamala Harris gets elected. He has the power of life and death for Donald Trump, and is using it on her behalf. 

Which is just one more step down the path of weaponizing government.
